This book was awesome and then I feel like it sort of

fizzled when they went on strike and just had to sit and read the news, especially when you KNEW the thing with translating "translate" was going to come back

- but so perfect throughout and I recommended this to everyone through the week I was reading it because I was SO into it. I know the length is intimidating but it really moved along fast.
